Holland & Knight has poached a 10-lawyer group from Beveridge & Diamond, leaving the 80-lawyer environmental law firm with just a handful of attorneys on the West Coast.

Land-use partners Jennifer Hernandez and Elizabeth Lake, who worked mainly out of Beveridge’s San Francisco office, started the exodus when they joined Holland’s Bay Area outpost last week. They are being joined by five associates and one senior counsel, who will work in San Francisco, and one of counsel and one associate, who will work out of Holland’s Los Angeles office.
